The primary goal of Gapp is to make Perl 5 GUI programming easier and less tedious. With Gapp you can to think more about what you want to do and less about choreographing widgets or keeping them (and your data) up to date.

Gapp effectively separates user interface design from business logic and data structures. By defining the appearance and layout of widgets at a single point in your program, your entire application maintains a consistent look and feel.

Combining the features of Moose with Gtk2 yields a powerful framework for building GUI applications. Declarative syntax results in code that is clearer and easier to maintain. Roles and traits can by applied to widgets like any other Moose object.
